Great shot.  I've been a fan of 172's and 182's for shooting for years;
just bring a bigole phillips screwdriver to unscrew the window bracket,

Never shot from a taildragger cessna, but I guess it would be the same (?)

Always fun "tacking" down the runway so you can see over the "hood"

Easier than finding your way in a Stearman!
